ARTICULATION AGREEMENT (hereafter referred to as BCCC), a community college in Baltimore City, Maryland, and Sojourner-Douglass College (hereafter referred to as SDC), a private college in Baltimore, Maryland agree to offer articulated programs leading to the award of a Bachelor of Arts and/ or Bachelors of Science Degree. PURPOSE OF AGREEMENT This agreement is entered into in the interests of our students. The general purpose of this agreement is to make clear the terms of the articulation agreement. This agreement will allow for the efficient transfer of students between campuses, including transfer credit, admissions and financial aid/scholarship. It will provide opportunities for students beyond the classroom, serving as a basis for student involvement and faculty interaction. It will set expectations for administrators, faculty and staff at both institutions, and foster a working relationship between the parties. Finally, it will encourage students to continue their education for their own personal and professional development. ADMINISTRATIVE PRINCIPLES The following general principles guide the operation of this Agreement: 1. The program is designed for graduates of the associate degree in Allied Human Services; Arts and Science; Biotechnology; Business Administration; Law Enforcement and Correctional Administration; General studies; and Office Technology at BCCC. A maximum of 70 credit hours from BCCC will be allowed towards fulfillment of the one hundred thirty-six (16) credit hours required for baccalaureate completion. 2. In accordance with the code of Maryland Regulation, all courses meeting general education requirements at BCCC will transfer to SDC as general education. Other general education requirements will be met by using required or elective courses at SDC as noted in this agreement.. The maximum number of credits that will accepted by SDC toward degree requirements from non-direct classroom instruction (including CLEP, AP, other nationally recognized standardized examination scores and other four-year institutions) is 0 credits. If the course is evaluated by BCCC and applied to the associate's degree, SDC will accept the course automatically as a transfer course. If the credit is not on the BCCC transcript, the student may submit the score report to be evaluated by SDC and credit will be applied as determined by SDC's evaluation. Credit
awarded for experiential learning ("life experience") if awarded by BCCC is recognized by, and is transferable to, SOC. It is possible that not all transferable credit accepted by SDC will be applicable to the degree. 4. Courses completed at another community college will count towards the total credits transferred into SOC. Official transcripts from all previously attended institutions will also be required. 5. Once the associate's degree is completed and the student has been admitted to SDC, the student will be instructed to contact the appointed academic advisor and register for classes. 6. While BCCC and SDC do not presently have a dual admissions program, should one be agreed to, this agreement will not preclude students from participation and students may apply for and receive the benefits of dualadmission. 7. Students may complete the SDC curriculum part-time or full-time, online or face-to-face, or in any combination thereof. 8. This articulation agreement becomes effective on the date set forth on the first page of this document. This agreement will be reviewed biennially, and appropriately marked as such. 9. BCCC will provide potential student directory information, as defined in FERP A, to SDC for matters of recruitment, marketing and data management. SDC does not include address, phone or e-mail as directory information. Educational records maintained by each institution are subject to the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERP A), and the regulations promulgated under it. 10. BCCC and SDC agree to monitor the performance of this agreement and to revise it as necessary. 11. The agreement may be terminated by either party after adequate notice, defined as one semester or 6 months, at which time appropriate measures will be put into place regarding the continued transfer of students. 12. The office of record for program articulation agreements at Sojourner Douglass College is the Office of the Registrar. The office of record at is the office of Articulation and Partnerships.

In order to be eligible for admission, students must comply with all SOC admissions requirements, including posted deadlines and appropriate documentation.. Should this articulation agreement concern a program with additional admissions requirements or prerequisite coursework, students must have met all standards prior to enrollment at Soc. 4. Students who have satisfied the requirements of the articulation agreement will be given every consideration for financial assistance and will be eligible to compete for academic scholarships at SOC APPENDICIES 1.
